Drove from Southampton Docks with just a solitary cruise ship and vehicle carrier from my viewpoint up through the city through Shirley to North Baddesley and I'd say maybe 50% of people were in masks, same at Winchester services. Weirdest site was a Home Bargains trailer seemingly on the verge of flipping over on the M3 after it merges with the A303, never seen a trailer twist like that and not flip

If so, not a problem at all, and in fact you can probably sidestep one of the more complex parts of 3D printing (turning a 3D object into 2D slices) because if I understand it right what you'd be printing would actually just be a stack of 2D curves following that equation?

A vase, the curve of which is defined by a mathematical equation, yes. You would need some sort of processing to turn the mathematical spline into a 3d object and give it appropriate thicknesses and connect the ends properly, and make sure the whole thing is properly meshed. Then you'd need something to translate that into a set of printing instructions, but yes it should be possible, I just don't know if there's a software package that would do it easily.

Worth mentioning that 3D printing often requires adding various sorts of supports and might involve accounting for some amount of droop with certain shapes. The more expensive the printer the less that is the case, generally speaking. e, fb kindof with potenttially more detail by owl and yes there is software to do that sort of thing, usually necessary to generate internal supports, though I dunno about the math function thing might require some coding/scripting Private Speech fucked around with this message at 16:32 on Jul 24, 2020 |

y=sqrt(x) rotated around the x-axis would be a shallow dish, not unlike the whiskey sour glass here but without the stem.

Incidentally, budget 3D printers are now getting perilously close to the hundred-quid mark, and resin printers are now under 200, both more-or-less plug-and-play, and I suspect this might be dropping it into the price range of quite a few of the WORRAMMER types ITT.

What I want (theoretically) is to generate a bottle which has a profile that can be modelled by a mathematical curve like the bottom math figure in the image so the 3D bottle represents that curve rotated 2pi radians around the x-axis so a student could fill the bottle with water, measure the volume and convince themselves of the accuracy of the calculation (within the limits of the thickness of the bottle sides. (I'm doing a teaching maths a-level course and have to come up with some practical ways to help students understand the maths.) So not being experienced in the ways of 3D printers, I was asking whether it is possible to put in an equation in some form or other and have it create the object. And now I just thought, if it can only generate a solid object, then that could be used as a form to make, say, a clay bottle. (This is at present a theoretical exercise I don't actually have to make this thing!) That whiskey sour glass posted by Guavanaut looks useful. I guess another possibility is to get a selection of glasses, draw the profiles and attempt to figure out a close-fitting equation to the same end so 3D printers not necessary.

The lesson I learned was never live with anyone else. I didn't til I got married and it's been ace. I had to use my mum as a guarantor but basically spent 80 percent of my salary on rent and lived off gently caress all for years and it was far better than having flatmates.

In a fun aside my work told me to take some time off or be forced to be off all of December when it's cold. So I took every single Friday off til Christmas. 4 day work week for the rest of the year woo. It'll be an interesting proof if I can get all my work done without any problems but I'm willing to bet I won't even be remotely stretched.

Hollow shouldn't be a problem, although of course it'd be a lot more fragile - like I say if my maths didn't break down once you got beyond the level of making change from a tenner I suspect it'd be pretty easy to generate with a script to output the slices (then combine them into a gcode or stl file because a lot of 3d printers will only accept a compiled file like that, presumably to stop "impossible" shapes slipping through). There's a 3D printing thread over in DIY, might be worth asking in there if there's a shortcut to doing it?

It might actually be easier to draw the spline you want and then turn it on a lathe from a lump of wood using the spline as a guide. Given that you can buy a cheap lathe for £100.

I mean if you're going to ask someone to make them on a 3d printer you could ask someone to lathe them instead. I was also thinking of those miniature ones they make. Presumably not good for much work but if your alternative is buying a 3d printer you'll never use again..?

I had to use my mum as a guarantor but basically spent 80 percent of my salary on rent and lived off gently caress all for years and it was far better than having flatmates. About 4 years ago was offered a job in London paying £30k (substantially less than what I used to earn, but having been out of the formal workplace for a decade probably all I could expect - and frankly seemed like riches beyond the dreams of avarice at the time!). Anyway, after much calculating and checking out transport etc, I concluded that all I could expect to rent would be a single room in a house or flat share if I wanted to live in London and in my mid-late 50s at the time I ain't flat sharing unless things are really desperate. Apart from my cats, I have lived alone for over 30 years (even if some of that time was a bedsit in a nurses' accommodation).

But the media seem to be picking up on the fighting fund and going nutso accusing the 'hard left' of going nuts and destroying Labour. Haven't read much of it, just seeing the headlines on google. What is interesting is that the number of donations is approx half the number of 'shares'. That seems a prettty good return on sharing to me!

They tend to have a crappy resolution, speed and cooling*, which effectively means you get worse things out of it. Even then a bit of filing and extra tolerance might be enough to get a decent result. *: Although the cooling issues can be partially solved with some diy fans.

The Question IRL posted:Maybe. But the people who paid Judas were the Romans. Essentially the Fuzz at the time. No it wasn't. It was the Pharisees who paid Judas, and the thirty pieces of silver was a deliberate insult because it was the blood price of a slave. It's also been pointed out that Pilate had to be pressured into killing Jesus because Jesus hadn't done anything that would demand execution under Roman law. Judas would surely have known that as well, and as such gave Jesus to the Romans thinking that Jesus would at worst be put in his place with a flogging. He killed himself when he realised that he'd betrayed Jesus to his death.

Flatmate chat: I've lived at (I think) 15 different places in 20 years of being in London. Fun highlights include: The flatmates cousin who moved to the UK - "she'll only be here a couple of weeks til she gets herself sorted". She never moved off the couch for 2 months, or contributed anything. Me & rest of the house confronted her and said 'either she fucks off or you start paying for bills', upon which they both melted down and called the police. Who never came. They moved out about 2 weeks later, never said a word to anyone again and just scowled if you'd pass them. Same house, later - The guy who went from 'busy carpenter you'd never see' to 'clearly drug-dealing and having people round all the time to listen to poo poo techno til all hours'. Fun walking into your living room and finding some random person sat watching TV, like 'who the gently caress are you?' 'Alex's friend' 'where's he?' 'at his girlfriends' 'Get out of my house please' He went loving ballistic on me when he came back, like it's somehow an acceptable thing to do. Fucker stole a load of my DVDs too. Stayed in contact with one of the guys, the last straw was Police coming round at 7am on a Saturday to arrest him for 'parking tickets'. About 3 years later I got a Bailliff letter telling me I owed ~£160 on the Gas/Electric I thought had been swapped to someone else's name, although that was fairly easy to clear up. Oh, and for about 2 months a lady backed with 2 meatheads in a van would knock about once a week, wanting to speak with an ex-housemates girlfriend on the £££ she owed to Kays catalogue, despite me telling them the landlady lives 5 doors down, go ask her if you don't believe me and no, I'm not telling you my name. The guy who would start cooking about 5 minutes before I'd get in from work, using 3 of 4 hobs, the oven and all the admittedly tiny kitchen workspace for a good hour 30, making what appeared to be the same fart smelling meal of boiled cabbage, some kind of stew & chicken kievs every day, then sit in the equally tiny connected living room and make the most disgusting slobber noises while eating it. After about a week of this (he'd just moved in) I said look, can you either cook earlier or wait til I have, because it takes me 1.5hrs to get home across the North Circ and I'm loving starving every night, plus wash the loving pans up after or get your own. Was driving the other girl there mad too, around this point we said to each other don't bother washing his poo poo up. A week later cue everything spotless along with a note 'I HAVE CLEANED ALL YOUR MESS I WILL NOT DO SO AGAIN'. And as a bonus, he thought it was a good idea to come back with 3-4 of his mates all pissed up at 2am on a school night and sing Russian drinking songs. loving had enough of that, and luckily a place came up with friends around then. I don't think living with friends is any easier, done that twice with 2 sets and both times we all agreed to shift somewhere else after a year before we murder each other. Thankfully lived with my other halves the last 10 years, was fun to see the look on my ex-wife's face explaining that she's leaving me and we'll both have to go back to housesharing: 'You're leaving, I'm keeping this place. gently caress random ever living with random people ever again'. In short, people are trash to live with.
